For the most part i am happy here.

I plan on staying awhile. ITs as good as place as any in my books. I just don't want to settle down here.
Canada is where i want to live out my days.

I'm happiest on pay day, but I definitely won't be here longer than 1 year. As soon as I get my EU it's southern Europe for me baby, yeah!

Voted yes. All in all, pretty cool. Canada seems so elsewhere.

For all the bumps along the way, Korea's been a great opportunity for me. I was getting restless in my old career, and I guess I was feeling that I was being led towards rather mediocre aspects of it. Korea gave me a chance to take a break from it and start saving enough money to go back to Canada on my own terms... and on my own time.

Only working 20-25 hours a week is a plus too; I've taken advantage of the time and have been doing a lot of freelancing. While I was worried that my time out of the Canadian workforce would look bad, my resume is actually improving now-- and most importantly, the improvements are in the directions that I *want* to take it.

Thanks, Korea Very Happy

Yes, very happy with Korea, only disapointed in my own failings, which Korea has very little to do with.

I'd have to say I'm happy about 90% of the time, which I consider way above average. There are days/periods when some problem blows up in my face and I'd like to nuke the entire earth in revenge, but that isn't the norm.

I've spent the last 8 years smoking the green and drinkin' beer most every day, so now that I'm here, and cut back to glue sniffin, I don't quite know how to be happy or sad. It's all just so confusing..........

I have my bad days but when i consider what i do here back to what my situation could have been in Australia I cheep right up. Coming here has been the best decision of my life. I've met some fantastic people, learned a lot about myself, been a little bit lucky but we all need luck.
I think I'll be here for 5 plus years yet. i hope you don't get tired of me here on the forum. I'll be NUMBER 1 one day Very Happy

Pretty much. But then, my 'here' is your 'there'. I'd like to hear from someone who is neither here nor there.
